Best Free Things to Do

  • Picnicking on Centre Island: Hop on the ferry and escape to the islands. From across the water, you'll see the city in an entirely new light.

  • Listening to a Concert at the Toronto Music Garden: Cellist Yo-Yo Ma co-designed this serene space that's intended to evoke Bach's First Suite for Unaccompanied Cello. It's easy on the eyes, but the best time to come here is for a summertime concert. Pure bliss.

  • Wandering through Riverdale Farm: In case you need more proof that Toronto is a very green city, it has a working farm in its midst. Cows, sheep, pigs, goats, and other critters call it home.

  • Visiting Ireland Park: This memorial to the Irish Famine opened in the summer of 2007. The "Arrival" figures created by Rowan Gillespie are a tied to his "Departure" series in Dublin.

  • Treasure Hunting for Vintage Clothing in Kensington Market: How can one small area have a dozen vintage-clothing vendors? And how do they keep prices low and quality good? Haphazard Kensington Market is a joy for bargain hunters.
